[Verse 1]
I ran from Your garden
Chased what I wanted
Hands full of shadows
Heart full of ache
I called it freedom
Till I hit the pavement
Bruised in the places
I tried to keep safe
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear my own excuses
They taste like dust
I see the way You’re waiting
Arms still open up
[Chorus]
Father
I’m sorry
I broke what You gave me
I traded Your kindness
For wounds I can’t hide
Father
I’m crying
I thought I was stronger
I’m tired of falling
Away from Your side
Father
I’m sorry
Can I come inside?
[Verse 2]
I dressed up my failures
Named them “just human”
Sang over my secrets
To drown out Your voice
But even in hiding
You kept on pursuing
Softly
So gently
You honored my choice
[Pre-Chorus]
Now all my quiet corners
Are filled with light
You step into my ruins
Call them back to life
[Chorus]
Father
I’m sorry
I broke what You gave me
I traded Your kindness
For wounds I can’t hide
Father
I’m crying
I thought I was stronger
I’m tired of falling
Away from Your side
Father
I’m sorry
Can I come inside?
[Bridge]
You touch every scar
And the shame lets go (oh)
You breathe on the ashes
And embers glow
You whisper my name
Like it’s pure
Like it’s new
I feel every fracture
Pull back into You
[Chorus]
Father
You heal me
Right where I’m bleeding
You gather the pieces
I buried in fear
Father
I’m breathing
In mercy this morning
I’m not what I ruined
I’m what You repair
Father
I’m sorry
Thank You for being here
[Outro]
Father
I’m sorry
Father
I’m home (mmm)
Held in Your heart now
I won’t let go
